Elinor Royce never asked to become a dragonrider. Raised in the Vale, she lived her life as the overlooked daughter of Daemon Targaryen, far removed from her Valyrian heritage. But when Lady Arryn decrees that she must train at Dragonstone Academy and bond with a dragon to protect her homeland, Ellie has no choice.
The academy is deadly, and only the strongest survive the training. Without any preparation or support, Ellie must compete against more experienced rivals, navigate political conspiracies, and endure the dreaded Trial by Fire, where each candidate faces a dragon to form a bond that could define - or destroy - them.
Worse yet, Aemond Targaryen - a lethal veteran and prodigy of the academy, already bonded to the fearsome Vhagar - seems determined to make her his newest adversary. As hostility between them grows, Ellie must decide whether Aemond is her greatest threat... or something far more complicated.
On the battlefield and beyond, danger lurks everywhere. And Ellie is about to discover that surviving the academy is only the beginning.
Will she rise to claim her destiny, or will the flames consume her first?
